Appellant’s argument that the end uses of the products in Cleaver II and Tada are “completely different” is unpersuasive. “One of ordinary skill in the art need not see the identical problem addressed in a prior art reference to be motivated to apply its teachings.” Cross Med. Prods., Inc. v.  Medtronic Sofamor Danek, Inc., 424 F.3d 1293, 1323 (Fed. Cir. 2005) (citing In re Oetiker, 977 F.2d 1443, 1448 (Fed. Cir. 1992). There is no need for Cleaver II to require improved solvent resistance in order for the Examiner to find improved solvent resistance as motivation for the combination.
